TOPIC: Checking Security

Hi; I read the Security article in the Aug 2010 Jommla Community Magazine, which recommended checking security on all my extensions.

I am running Joomlacomment 4.0 RC1 – finances don't allow me to get a subscription to update to 4.1. Does RC1 have any security problems? Is there a later 4.0 version that I should be using?

As you can see we take security really seriously too: compojoom.com/blog/news/hack-compojoomcomment-and-win-a-prize
There have been 6 reported security problems - 5 of them are fixed in 4.1.5 and the last one will be fixed today and we will release 4.1.6.

All previous versions including 4.0 are vulnerable.

Cheers,
Daniel

P.S. If you write to me (here or in an email) why 15€ is too much on your side ( and if it is a reason like - live in Africa or earn 50€ per month) I will grant you a free subscription.
